As I venture off on a 5 day trip, quotes on travel came to mind. Here goes before I hit the road!

is to be able to experience
everyday things as if for the first time,
to be in a position in which
almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.
-Bill Bryson

I travel not to go anywhere, but to go.
I travel for travel’s sake.
The great affair is to move.
-Robert Louis Stevenson

and travel and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey.

and the wise traveler learns not to repeat successes
but tries new places all the time.

but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die,
it can introduce the idea
that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.
